Today’s song is from the film Panna Dai-1945.

The film was based on a story of Loyalty and glorious sacrifice, having a special place in Indian History. I wonder how the Producer selected the story of Indian sacrifice, when the trend was to make films on the falsely glorified bravery and good qualities of Mughal Kings ! It is a sad reflection that the choice mostly went in favour of the laurels of Mughals and the invaders of India rather than the builders and protectors of India. The ratio of Historical films was perhaps 70:30, in favour of the Mughals and other outsiders, compared to India’s own Heroes. Regional films from Maharashtra, Andhra, Tamilnadu, Karnatak, Orissa and Bengal were much better than the Hindi films on this count.

Today’s song is a marching song from the film ‘Veer Babruwahan’ (1950).

Now, the name ‘Babruwahan’ is a strange name and I am sure most readers have never heard it, at least those who are below 60 years of age. I heard his story for the first time from my grandfather when I was about 8 years old. Being an odd name and sounding even funny, it remained in my memory. Later I found his story in the 14th parvaThe Ashwamedha Parva of Mahabharat in the subparva 91-92.

————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (29 April 2013), six songs from six different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
8001 Mera husn lootne aayaa Chandralekha (1948) 8 songs covered out of 11 by now
8002 Chanda ki chaandni na suhaaye to kya karen Duniya Ek Saraai (1947) 5 songs out of 9 by now
